Coming from a rural Nebraska ranching family, I have a good work ethic and know hard work and a “job well done” is very rewarding. I believe this attitude will take me far in the places I want to go. I have had the goal of playing next level football since my freshman year of high school. I stepped into the varsity middle linebacker position after the starter had an injury. Last year, we had an 8-0 regular season run, but lost the first round of playoffs! This was not the outcome I wanted and decided that I would push myself harder in the weight room, fine tune my abilities by attending camps and lead my teammates into a better post season in the future.
I’m not afraid of hard work and sacrifice. I have been a 4 year varsity wrestler, qualifying for state twice to date. I keep an intense schedule with activities including football, wrestling, extracurricular school clubs, my classes, and part time ranching jobs. I’m very organized and take pride in my attention to detail.
I love playing football, having new experiences on and off the field, and meeting new people. I would like to stay in the Midwest and close to home. I feel I would be an asset to your program for next season, I am seasoned and ready to play.
